From the Editor’s Laptop
This spring seems to have provided so much inspiration—this newsletter is full of all sorts of interesting tidbits. From our president, we have information on our sister organizations in the United States; from Alberta Education, an update that will be very useful in discussions with parents who are supporting the “back-to-the-basics” movement; and, again, requests for you to submit names of wonderful professionals in our field, including those just beginning (see Math Educator and Art Jorgenson awards).
And take a look at our new column, “C^3,” the three Cs being “Current Commentaries by Council.” At our executive meetings we often have interesting discussions on current issues in mathematics, but often do not have the opportunity to share our thoughts with the broader community. Because an important part of growing as a teacher is to stay up to date with current issues in our fields, we hope that this column will be a quick way to help with this. We hope you all enjoy it.
Have a great spring and summer!
